at the top of the article, the writer says, quote, it might as well be harry potter's i invisible night bus because no one can prove that it exists, end quote. what's your thought here? >> i have to agree that just because one says something doesn't make it so. look, no one wants voter fraud. no one wants ineligible people voting. the issue is these policies that politicians have been writing, that spapartisan activists have been pursuing. but you hear about these buses of voters, you hear about what they say is the food stamp army out to steal the election, the illegal alien vote, their words, trying to steal the election. but that's not backed up with reality. no one wants voter fraud. but we don't want to make it where eligible americans can't exercise their rights to vote. let's take down these barriers instead of enacting roadblocks and making people jump over hurdles to exercise what is the most basic fundamental freedom. that's what your democracy is about. it's about going to the ballot box and participating and having control over our democratic process. we are working overtime
